 Re: Driveshaft - Universal joint
I will do that bit, they went in fine and came out fine. I don't want to start taking all those a part again.
It is just the driveshaft part. If they are damaged i will go for new ones or a decent set of second hand ones.

 Re: Driveshaft - Universal joint
Got your inner drive shaft forks. Sadly the cross joint we ordered are no good. They are simply to wide. When both securing clips are fitted, the joint can't turn due to too much pressure on the needles inside the caps. The design is not correct. I need to find some original or maybe file these reproduction cross joints. I think I can file the internal stub a fraction allowing the caps to move just enough so the biting disappears. Failing that, other cross joints are needed. Maybe Cassis can supply a better product Back soon

 Re: Driveshaft - Universal joint
Yes, I had the same problem and had to rub the circlips down on emery cloth to get a few thou end float. Also see my previous forum on how one of these copy joints snapped under emergency braking. I have a pair of genuine Citroen joints still in their boxes, but with post from France, you probably wouldn't be interested. Bob

 Re: Driveshaft - Universal joint
Been on the road for a few days (last 4 days 530 km on the bike.... Legs hurt)
Don't worry about the post costs, let us know. This is the last piece I need to get this little van back on the road.
Cheers Ian

 Re: Driveshaft - Universal joint
Lovely the goodies arrived and it is original cross joint, paradise. Thanks Bobh When the original is under pressure, they still turn where the reproduction bites
